In a seemingly orchestrated legal drama, a New York jury orders former President Donald Trump to pay $83.3 million to E. Jean Carroll for alleged defamation. The verdict, including $65 million in punitive damages, $11 million for reputational harm, and an additional $7.3 million, raises questions about the political undertones.
